ABSTRACT:
A multifunctional outdoor folding chair comprising two generally U-shaped open frames, one major and outer and the other minor and inner, braced pivotally one within the other to support a detachable seat which, in turn, supports pivotally a detachable back panel. The two frames are braced at points generally midway between the ends of the paired cross legs thereof by a common fastener. Rows of bosses under the seat serve to connect with locking channels on the planar top portions of the two frames, and the chair height can be adjusted by choosing the appropriate boss row for connection with the major frame. A storage chamber is attached between the leg portions of the minor frame adjacent the lower ends, and another storage shelf is built onto the undersurface of the seat. The back panel, by means of angle joints at the rear end thereof, is mounted onto the seat through locking slits thereon. Different game board patterns are printed on the top of the seat, and on the back and the front of the back panel. Under the extended operative condition of the chair, an overlapping double seat is formed when the back panel is turned downward to fold upon the seat. To fold the chair, the double seat is disengaged from the major frame and folded upon the minor frame, and the overlapping complex of these three members is folded within the boundaries of the major frame in maximum compactness. Coinciding rectangular cutouts formed along one lateral side of the double seat provide a space for the adjacent leg pair to serve as a handle for carrying the folded chair.
